TPS Foundation Board Members Honored

Longtime Topeka Public Schools Foundation Board of Directors
members Garry Cushinberry, Jim Edwards and Val Patterson were honored for their
service to the foundation at the annual meeting on January 14th.
These members have completed multiple terms of service and will be retiring
from the foundation board. Collectively, they have served in some capacity on
the foundation board in excess of 50 years. The TPS Foundation’s Executive
Director Pamela Johnson-Betts said, “Their meritorious service, expertise and
lasting presence will be missed, but they are so valued that we will continue
to find ways to keep them interested and involved with helping us serve Topeka
Public Schools.”

New TPS Foundation Board of Director members elected at the
meeting were Dr. Beryl New, Dr. Ned Nusbaum and Mr. Duke Palmer.
